Chapter 323: Chapter 172 Out of Print Autographed Photo
The first gift he unwrapped was from Su Yajing.
The address from Li City had already exposed the sender.
Zhou Wang was somewhat amused, thinking that if this was the case, she might as well have handed it to him before he left the day before.
But Zhou Wang figured this was another point of psychology concerning women.
They valued rituals more than men did. In their view, if the gift wasn’t given at the right time, the sense of ritual would be significantly diminished.
The same reason applied to the timing of their well wishes.
He quickly unpacked it, finding a peace charm wrapped in a fragrant sachet inside.
Zhou Wang glanced at it. Su Yajing had gotten it from Jizu Mountain in White City, known as one of the top ten Buddhist mountains. It cost 8888 big money, and she had also burned incense for him, believing it would be quite effective.
This... was a bit hard to gauge.
But considering that Su Yajing, who wasn’t fond of sports, was willing to climb a mountain for him, it counted as a thoughtful gesture.
The second package was larger and signed "Miss Cat," a local delivery.
Zhou Wang thought for a moment. With such a "cute" name and being local, it should be Yu Duo, right?
He unwrapped it, starting with a card. At the sight of "Big Bad Wolf" as the salutation and the hand-drawn expression, Zhou Wang knew he wasn’t wrong.
Inside the package were two boxes, both containing sunglasses, albeit in different styles.
Oh, he even recognized the styles...
One pair was the same Dior model that Zhou Jielun wore while watching an F1 race, and the other was a PRADA model that Li Xian wore, which had been featured in a digital edition of a fashion magazine.
The two styles were completely different, but both were quite cool.
Miss Cat: "Not knowing which one you’d like, I bought both, ugh, you’ve drained me completely this time. I’m going to be broke ಥ_ಥ"
Zhou Wang smacked his lips. These sunglasses weren’t particularly expensive, around four or five thousand each. But considering Yu Duo had spent all her New Year’s money on the Rolex she gave him, the pressure must have been quite significant.
He casually handed the sunglasses to Jiang Qingkui behind him and picked up the third package.
Jing City?
After a brief pause, Zhou Wang opened it to find it was from Sun Xining...
This girl, she even sent him a Valentine’s gift...
As for how she knew his address, it wasn’t surprising at all. He never hid these things, so there were always ways to find out.
For instance, although Old Ji had never visited, he knew that Zhou Wang lived on the top floor of the Spring Eye Apartments.
Her gift was a Doraemon figurine, nothing special about it, only a note with her name stuck to the back.
What on earth?
Did she want to be my Doraemon?
Just as Zhou Wang was bewildered, he saw her Greeting Card:
"Big shareholder, here’s a fun fact for you—Doraemon was once called Dungen."
Zhou Wang was momentarily taken aback, gradually understanding.
Dong...
Turns out she wanted to be my personal protector!
Her way of expressing it was really... subtle.
But most people probably wouldn’t get it.
Likewise, he handed it to Jiang Qingkui, then continued to unwrap the fourth package.
This package was a bit puzzling...
There was no name or address, nor was it clear how it had been sent.
After a slight inquiry with Chen Mei, Zhou Wang found out some packages were delivered directly to their property center by runners, not through traditional courier ways.
The package contained only a baseball cap, with no other items or cards.
Someone gifted me a cap?
What on earth is this...
Puzzled, Zhou Wang put the cap aside and continued unwrapping several other packages without names.
The contents were varied, some expensive, some cheap. The only constant was that the senders all concealed their identities.
After looking for a long time, Zhou Wang could vaguely guess the sender of one gift, but had no clue about the others...
This is ridiculous... If it were any other holiday, it wouldn’t matter, but playing anonymous gifts on Qixi?
The crux was that more than one mysterious woman chose to do so.
"Tsk... could you please put these things together in one place temporarily for me?"
He combined all the questionable and mysterious gifts and handed them to Jiang Qingkui, specifically asking her to help label them.
Zhou Wang swept his eyes over and saw there were now four named packages left, sent by Xu Wenqian, Chen Shu, Hua Suisui, and Shen Yutong.
To his surprise, he didn’t see a gift from Ding Yi, which left Zhou Wang a little taken aback. But the thought quickly passed, and he didn’t pay much attention to it as he resumed looking through the remaining gifts.
Chen Shu’s gift was a large package of tea, her own homemade kudzu flower tea, which Zhou Wang had tried once and found effective in hangover relief.
Xu Wenqian’s gift to Zhou Wang was a set of men’s skincare products, Biotherm’s blue diamond line, including cleanser, serum, toner, and cream, worth around three or four thousand.
Speaking of skincare, Zhou Wang had no understanding of it. In his twenty-two years of life so far, he had adhered to the sole principle of "washing with plain water."
In Zhou Wang’s opinion, this stuff was quite enigmatic.
He had a roommate who used creams and masks every day, but still had a face full of acne popping up like bamboo shoots after the rain. Yet Zhou Wang, who used a single towel throughout his university years, had fairly good skin...
"It just means you’re naturally good-looking."
Jiang Qingkui chuckled softly, "I didn’t use much of those either before, and my skin was okay, but after going abroad, maybe the change in environment caused my skin to deteriorate, and now I can’t do without them..."
